Forest of Fungi

Here are photos of some of the fungi that we saw in the forests around Peebles. Neither Crafty Green Boyfriend or I are really interested in foraging for edible wild mushrooms, apart from field mushrooms we don't like the taste or texture. We are however fascinated by fungi! If you can help with identification of any of these, please leave a comment!

oyster mushrooms? (above)

all the fungi below are entirely unidentified, any help you can give would be appreciated.....

That's a lot of fungi shapes, wonderful. I particularly am interested with that yellow branching one, as I've just posted in FB of my orange mushrooms seemingly looking like that. I have some mushroom bags producing oyster mushroom in my kitchen, am fascinated of harvesting what i will cook, very exciting.
